>>>President Bush's State of the Union address and the Israeli election results are a bitter double whammy for the Middle East. They are the worst of news, crushing any hopes of peace in the region. Bush?s address makes it plain that war over Iraq is moving inexorably closer.<<<

>>>As for George Bush's State of the Union address, one can only weep tears of bitter despair and wait for the war that must surely now come. Compulsive optimists may say that it was nothing more than posturing designed for domestic consumption and which does not necessarily translate into immediate action. Yes it was designed for the home audience. But there will come a point -- a matter of weeks at most --when he has to be seen taking action. He could have sounded a note of conciliation, building on it later. But this was all threat -- and the trouble with threats is that you have to deliver sooner or later or look the fool. Bush has painted himself into a corner. He has made it impossible for himself to climb down now.<<<
